We selected to test and review this product from the Home Depot Seeds reviewer program for use in our daughter's bedroom. We had before now been using a pricey bulb in a table top lamp on top of her dresser to help her get to sleep more easily each night. Using this light bulb, we are able to adjust the light while we are sitting in bed in the next room over so as not to disturb her. The problem I have with this bulb is that it tries to connect to 5Ghz networks and even establishes a connection, but then each hour will say it is offline and not remove itself when it is not functional.

We appreciate your detailed feedback and on how you like our smart light. Please make sure that your WIFI frequency are already separated just to avoid any interruption between the 2 WIFI networks. We highly recommend to contact your internet service provider and request to change it for you. While for dual-band routers, your service provider will separate the 2.4 GHz to 5.0 GHz for them to have different SSID so you can connect your device using AP mode. For more details, please contact us at +1 (888) 232-3143 or send us an email at support@mygeeni.com. You may also visit our support website support.mygeeni.com for live chat support.

Bright and fun lights
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These Geeni lights are awesome! I have been looking for lights to light up our living room for awhile now and these fit the bill perfectly. They were very easy to install and the app needed is intuitive and easy to use. You can adjust not only the warmth but the temperature as well (shown in photo). It also has a rainbow of colors that you can modify to your liking. I grouped all three bulbs together for standard lighting but you can leave them individual. There are even preset moods like rave and rainbow to make sure your lighting stands out. Works well with my established smart devices and I couldn't be happier with the quality.

    These are multi colored bulbs or solid bulbs with a candela base. I did have a hard time setting these up over the app and that could be because of the light fixture I am using as it has a high and low settings. Once I got the the app working I was really surprised at all these light bulbs can do. There are so many functions on the app that the different lightings are almost endless. I am definitely going to be checking out all these functions that these light bulbs offer. Also they can be controlled with Alexa and Google.

    This product is pretty interesting! It's amazing how tiny something can be and still work as expected. So this light bulb uses an app, you can adjust the brightness and the times it goes on and off. And it's a pack of two! Super cool how it works and how easy it is to set up and use, and the really impressive thing is how it actually works! As long as I have my phone, I can connect to it, I don't need a hub or anything special to hook up to my internet router to use! It's a set it and forget it kind of product, and it works really well! And it's LED.

    When I first opened the box the bulbs were in, a peel and stick message tumbled out that read, “This luminaire has been modified to operate LED lamps. Do not attempt to install or operate HID lamps or Compact Fluorescent Luminaires in this luminaire. In the future use only bypass lamps”. I understood “LED” and that was it. What is a “bypass lamp”? It does say they are candelabra bulbs and fit any E12 fixture. My night lights are not E12 fixtures which is why I ordered these bulbs. The picture looked like they would fit..I thought. I don't have any E12 fixtures so I cannot test these bulbs. I can say they appear to be well made of quality materials. They are heavy for their size. It would be interesting to see how they function.

    To all who have become light bulb illiterate, such as myself, be sure to read the description that tells you what the bulb is all the way through before ordering it online. The picture may look like it will fit in a night light but it does not. Not even close. These are candelabra bulbs with B11 E12 bases. Dimmable turnable candle Bulb for chandeliers. I have no way to test these bulbs because I don't have a chandelier or any place to put one. I wish I did. They sound wonderful and fun.

    The Geeni smart bulbs require a 2.4 GHz wifi connection to set up the device. This could potentially be a major setback as the latest routers work at 5 GHz, and unless you are an advanced user to enable dual band, these light bulbs can not be set up. After setting up, you can control these lights over your 5 GHz network, but 2.4 GHz is required for setup. The bulbs come in an attractive box and are packaged well and securely. These bulbs are the B11 (the small light socket size). They fit perfectly in wall sconces, chandeliers, or any other light fixture that uses this bulb. I have wall scones with a lamp shade that attaches with wires around the bulb, and the shade fits very well over the bulbs. Once connected to a 2.4 GHz connection and bulb in the socket, it is quite straightforward to install the Geenie app and follow the step by step instructions to set up the lights. The app allows to customize the light settings, different colors, brightness, scenes and set up schedules to turn on and off the light bulbs. Each device can be named and assigned to rooms, and there is also a feature to group multiple devices together. The app is pretty user friendly and easy to navigate. When grouping lights together, the app defaults to a color saturation of 0, so it looks like the color doesn't work for grouped lights. It does, though. You have to turn the saturation up in the app and the colors work very well. The app also has different scene settings, so you can set your mood from reading, nature, and others. Geenie devices can be linked via Alexa or Google Home, which allows to turn on or off the lights on voice command. Overall, I really enjoy these bulbs and would buy more of the same for different areas of the house. The only concern is the 2.4 GHz wifi requirement for setup.

    Ideal for TV den and hallway light. Easy to schedule and group together. I needed a pair of lights for my hallway fixture, and didn’t want the bright power of a 60 to 100 watt bulb. This pair of candelabra bulbs fit my fixture with the help of the E12 to Normal adapter, available at Home Depot. This kept the bulbs small, to fit into my glass dome, and needed no wiring. Programming was easy - the Geenie home app auto-finds the bulbs when you install them- do be careful to install and program them one at a time, though. Otherwise, you need reset the bulb by turning it off/on 3 times, and start over, so no big deal. I was easily able to group the two bulbs into 1 fixture in the app. Then I set a few intelligent commands such as to come on at sunset, which it computes based on my location. I wanted the lights at 50% power, medium-cool. Later, at bedtime, I want my button-tap to start a 2 minute countdown, giving me time to exit the room and get up the stairs - no problem! See photos for the installation, the bulb adapters I added, a few screenshots of the app including a very informative home screen, and a comparison of the cool vs warm colors of the fixture (0 to 100% adjustable). These are great and should last many years. And they save energy!

    Geeni products have always been reliable for me. I have some Geeni smart products that have worked reliably with Alexa for a few years now with very few problems. As far as functionality goes, these are excellent. They come on with voice commands every time and the timers you can set up in the Geeni app are reliable as well. The obvious issue with candelabra smart bulbs is that they are fairly ugly to look at and usually these bulbs are used in fixtures where you can see the bulbs clearly. Usually these fixtures take 4 to 6 bulbs each so it can get quite expensive buying that many smart bulbs as well. If you prefer function over form, then I would definitely recommend these bulbs.

    These are great color changing and dimming bulbs. It's candle shaped and fits in candelabras nicely. The difference with these bulbs is you can change to varying colors and whether you want the lighting to be dim or brighter. It's "smart lighting" and can be used through Alexa for voice command while using them. It can also be used with Google as well. The LED bulbs are bright and will last a very long time.

    Geeni 40-Watt Equivalent Wi-Fi Smart B11 Edison Multicolor Tunable White LED Light Bulb(4-Pack)The 40-Watt Equivalent Wi-Fi Smart B11 Edison Multicolor Tunable White LED Light Bulb (4-Pack) has been a wonderful addition to several rooms in our home. When entering a room equipped with the Geeni smart bulbs, I can quickly change the color from white (2700k warm white to 6000k cool white) to virtually any color, while at the same time, I can dim or vary the intensity of the light all from my phone. I also love that I can leave the hardwired switch in the on position and use my phone as a switch or set schedules and timers all from my phone. To no surprise, these bulbs are a direct fit for the candelabra bulbs in the ceiling fans that we have installed in rooms throughout the house. These bulbs are a direct replacement and replace any existing light fixture bulb with B11 E12 base. The physical changing of the four bulbs was done in less than a minute. Once the bulbs were replaced, I downloaded the Geeni app to my phone and began the programming process. The first bulb was a bit tedious and frustrating, but after completing the programming the of the first bulb, subsequent bulbs only took approximately 90 seconds each. I plan to purchase additional sets to complete these for the remaining rooms in the house. If your local store does not stock these bulbs go to Home Depot.com to order and have them delivered to your local store for free or to your office or home.

    My kids cant get enough of these bulbs (and they're driving me slightly crazy). I put the bulbs in my kids' bedroom light fixture and then synced with Alexa. Now they can control the color, dimming, and on/off with their voice. It's really fun for them, especially after they're supposed to go to bed, but we hear them whispering commands to Alexa to change the colors and we look under their door to see what appears to be a light show coming from their room. Honestly, they are great and work perfectly. Nice colors and obviously installation is easy. If you have other Geeni light bulbs then syncing is very easy. If this is your first then follow the three-step instructions and you'll get to enjoy your own light show!

    The Geeni Prisma Plus Candle base tunable white seem to hold a lot of promise to brighten up any candelabra or specialty sconce light. The package promises color setting options with an app on the phone for each of the four bulbs in the package. However, I was unable to connect to any of the bulbs with the app on my iPhone at iOS level 13. I went to the support site listed in the package literature and went thru the problem questions, but no luck. My guess is that this product doesn't work with the Orbi mesh network, even tough 2.4 ghz is in the mesh.

    I just installed the Geeni 40-Watt Equivalent Wi-Fi Smart B11 Edison Multicolor Tunable White LED Light Bulbs in my Living Room. Very easy to install. Download the Geeni App and then Screw the bulb and it will start flashing. It's pretty straight forward. Follow the directions. I am controlling them using my Alexa App to turn on & off. The detail variation of color changing can be accessed using the Geeni App. It has ambient variations with color changing dimming light bulbs. It has 9 preset modes (e.g. night, cocktail, blinking to name a few). It's LED (40 watt) bulbs so cost effective. Love it. I am using 3 of 4 so I have a spare as well (4 pack)

    I absolutely love WiFi bulbs and color able bulbs can give your decor a whole new vibe. These smart LED geeni Prisma Plus candelabra bulbs will let you customize colors as well as adjust from cool to warm white light. They work with Google assistant, alexa and Cortana. Installing should be simple. You download the geeni app, insert them, turn them on then connect via WiFi. Didn’t work for me however. When I turned them on they did blink rapidly like they should but they would not connect to my wifi, even after trying several times. If they don’t connect they function as white bulbs. The globe is plastic, which is actually better than glass, and is slighter wider than an average candelebra bulbs. E12 base, B11 shape. 350 lumens equal to 40 watts. Bulb functions are controlled by the app. You can control multiple bulbs at once with one tap. No hub required. I will keep trying to get these bulbs to connect, because they are great bulbs, and there is a toll free number you can call for assistance. Not compatible with 5GHz WiFi networks

    Smart Candelabra bulb by Geeni. This Lux Candle offers smart connectivity via the app and requires NO HUB, which is a huge bonus. We have a few other Geeni products so it wasn’t tough for us to understand/use the app. The e12 base fits in any traditional Candelabra fixture and you can easily control the dimming. I would only use this bulb in a place where you want a smart bulb.

    These Geeni bulbs have been amazing. I have a light on the front porch that is on a light switch and is on/off. I don't like leaving it on overnight, but it also gets very dark. I was looking for an option to install smart light bulbs so I can control the timing of the light and their brightness. Especially during the winter months when the says are short, it will be nice to have the lights turn on at full brightness from late afternoon until late in the evening and then go to 25% brightness overnight, turning off in the morning. And I can also control it all with my voice and the app!

    These bulb are AMAZING!!!  1) they are LED, so each uses only 4.5 Watts when lit, while their light output is 350 lumens; instead of being clear glass, their glass is solid white; 2) You can voice command the light to turn on without flipping any switch.  These are outstanding for those areas where your lamp is not on a flip switch.  I love these also as the bulb for a light on a nightstand by your bed as instead of having to stretch over to reach the light switch, which is annoying, I can instead simply verbally command the light to turn off, now THAT is convenience.  If you don't mind being pampered, I think you will LOVE these lights.  Another issue is when I have my hands full, am carrying laundry, or whatever, and don't have a free hand, in which case it becomes tough to even flip a light switch, walking into a bedroom in the darkness, flipping the switch is not necessary, as in this case a verbal command will do.  In the winter, when the days are short, they are also great to turn on a light via voice command simply to light up your space as you arrive home to a dark house/apt.  I keep one light on using a timer, then enter the house by the front door or the garage door, and can verbally command the kitchen light to turn on to give me more light, instead of walking into darkness, which is pretty neat!  I think back to when my elderly parents were alive...  How I would have LOVED to have these bulbs for them as each used a walker which occupied BOTH HANDS.  How do you flip on a light switch when both hands are in use operating a walker?  These would have been a great SAFETY DEVICE, in my view, especially for when they got up in the middle of the night, in the darkness, for voiding...  they would have given them and me piece of mind that they would have adequate lighting to prevent falls/injury...  a small price to pay for safety.  I am thinking also of how these would benefit patients recovering from a major surgery, have difficulty walking, getting around... Walking in the darkness can be dangerous, while these bulbs can light their path by voice commands alone, which is AWESOME!!! I LOVE these, and I plan to get more.  I would add that if/when you buy these, make sure you get the right base size to fit your needs.   Also, if you have any issues with the setup, there is a 1-800 number you can call for support to complete the process.  I highly recommend these.

    These Geeni 40 watt equivalent wifi smart bulbs are an excellent and worthwhile addition to my home. I like the Geeni brand because they work perfectly in my home network without loosing connectivity thru the Geeni app. The bulbs are of high quality. I really like that I can tune them to my desire as they are easy to change the color, brightness and temperature or turn on and off with just a touch of a button and can also be put on a schedule thru the app. Each bulb is set up independently of the others.

    Super bright light bulbs which made a huge difference in my lantern lamp. These bulbs work well with the Google Home APP and pair well when a google home device is in the same room. The lamp lights are able to be controlled by my phone app or can also be controlled by voice. This is a new generation in lighting for the home and works well when combined with home automation schedules. The APP was easy to install on my iPhone and worked seamlessly with the lights. I love the super bright look and the ability to change up the schedule as I need to for home and away lighting. I can even turn this lights on when we are not home which makes this an additional security device for the home. Great product and great results.

      Easiest set up
      [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This set of lights has the easiest set up i have come across. It took about 3 minutes total. The light bulbs are amazing, the amount of things you can do with bulbs on app are phenomenal. You can make any color as well as adjust the light level and dimmer. I love the settings where you can preset different light options for one touch application. Just really great app that these lights have. I would highly recommend and i plan on getting more from this brand.
